Again, I think Paris will go. Katharines too good and Kelly has the voting power from VFTW group (which I do not like).

RJ, I think I recall you saying VFTW is a site that picks who they think is the worst, then they call in votes FOR the worst, in this case Kellie. Right? If so, sucks that such a group exists. Well, that means we must give our Favs even more votes!! ---------------------Gosh, I thought Kat was awesome and disagree with Paula that the song was "too big" for her. Kat has done better, but geee...she is such a great performer...no matter what she sings!

Taylor didn't seem as good tonite, but don't think he'll be in the bottom 2 or 3. I voted that Elliott would be gone this week, but after his performance tonite, don't think so!

I hope Kellie gets voted out. This was 2 weeks in a row that she did poorly.

I thought everyone sang well, even Kellie. It isn't her type of music and I think she was trying to go with the advice she was given. One thing I credit her with, she doesn't trash Simon, she admits when she sings badly. (Unlike some of the twerps who sound awful and think they are better than... (insert name)

I would love to hear a duet with Kat and Bocelli!

Paris did a great job, it must be that in the theater they hear it differently than we do. She didn't seem to oversing to me. Her voice is powerful and I think it is hard for her to tone it down.

Taylor never does as well with the judges when he doesn't do his own thing. Loved his hint of color with the red in the pocket.

And my gripe... big one! TWO guitarists?? SUPER good lighting? LAST singer?? PULEEEZEEEEE! Chris sang and did well because he sang instead of yelling as he has tended to do from time to time.

Rudy (or should I say Vuday again ), yes, that is right about VFTW thread. It DOES suck and wish they wouldn't do things like that. That's why I think Kelly will be safe again....but who knows.

I kinda think my gal is gone tonight. I don't know if this poll is accurate or not, I did call to vote starting with Kat and got through first try, 45 mins into voting. Then I voted for Kellie, got right through. Just to see how it was going, I also was able to vote for Paris and Elliott without encountering too many redials. Wish I had kept track. (HMMM am I voting for the losers?? Don't answer that!)

I did get busy signals though.... even after I voted a time or two. I could see Elliott going tonight, Bucky went after Simon praised him.....

If Kellie doesn't go home tonight she's going home next week. As much as they think they do, VFTW has it's limitations. I'd love to see how many active members they really have and of those, who actively votes and how many times.

DANG I was right, my little gal is gone. I don't believe she is stupid as claimed by a lot of people, she hasn't had a good education and there is a difference. She's only 19. Not all that mature. I give her great credit. I cannot recall another idol contestant thanking the people behind the scenes. A class act leaving. I hope someone helps her with her career. The camera loves her. Country is her genre.

That said, I'm fed up with Idol, Seacrest dissing Simon, and most of all Paula's odd behavior. It is clear that Chris has been anointed for the next AI. We saw the final two last night, Katherine and Chris. Taylor will most likely make it to 3rd place. I can't wait till next Tuesday.. what will we see for old Chris? A whole rock band on stage with him and special effects? I think he can sing when he chooses to sing, but most of the time he screams and it isn't appealing to me at all.

Katherine has the potential to become a true star, several times she has shown she could be a super star. Believe in yourself Katherine!

I love Taylor, Elliott and Paris. Paris will be fine, we'll hear from her in the future. Taylor and Elliott, I dunno..

Agree, TL. She's naive, not stupid. And, she wasn't putting on a "dumb blond act". She simply doesn't catch on to stuff probably b/c she was overprotected by her family. Perhaps they just stayed close to home due to low income? Dunno, but Kellie wasn't exposed to the "real world"...for whatever reasons. Yes, Country is her genre and if she could've sang only Country on AI, she would've gone further. She's a sweet gal, and I wish her the best.

But aren't all of the idols allowed to have a rock band, guitarists, special effects or whatever to enhance their performance? Maybe I'M naive, but I don't believe the show is rigged. Yeah, the judges have their favs, but if they showed partiality to certain ones...gave them special priviledges, they would be in deep uknowhat!

Yes, Kat is so great and I hope she is the next AI. I'd love to see Taylor in 2nd, but doubt he will. I've liked some of Chris's performances, but don't think he'll be the next AI. Same with Elliott. Of all of them, Elliott has made the biggest improvement. Paris will most definitely be successful with her charisma and powerhouse voice!

Was it my imagination...or did Taylor appear to be not himself at the Results Show? He hardly cracked a smile, his lips were persed, he looked tense and stressed. All the others were smiling, but Taylor had such a serious, straight face and kinda forced a smile now & then. Aww heck, maybe he just had a bad hair day!?

I don't think Kellie Pickler was nearly as stupid as people painted her out to be. I think she was putting on a Jessica Simpson type act and it worked. Wouldn't be shocked if she still gets some kind of album deal or finds her way into a sitcom.

Whatever...wishing her good luck with her life after AI. Not my Fav contestant, but love her smile, good nature, sweetness. I feel a bit sorry for her if she isn't isn't pretending, if she honestly lacks knowledge, and is truly unable to grasp things normally. Love n' blessings to her...in either case. Kellie!Ruday
